Pool Removal in Star, ID

Star, riverside acreage growing fast along the Boise River

Star's growth has folded older riverfront homes and rural acreage into new neighborhoods, and more than a few of those properties came with a pool nobody swims in anymore. Iron Crest Earthworks handles the full removal — demolition of the shell, complete haul-off, and a compacted engineered backfill — so a home along the State Street corridor or out on Star acreage gets its yard back as level, buildable ground.

What's included

  • In-ground concrete & gunite pools
  • Vinyl-liner & fiberglass pools
  • Above-ground pool removal
  • Partial & full removal options
  • Engineered backfill & compaction

In Star, we take on pool removal across downtown Star, riverfront Star, rural Star acreage, and the rest of Ada County — sized to the lot and the access on each site.

Our process

How pool removal works in Star

  1. 01

    Assess the pool & access

    We check the pool type, size, and backyard access, talk through partial vs. full removal, and quote it free.

  2. 02

    Drain & disconnect

    The pool is drained properly and any utilities and equipment are disconnected.

  3. 03

    Demolish & remove

    We break up the shell, remove the debris, and haul it off.

  4. 04

    Backfill & compact

    The void is filled with engineered material and compacted in lifts so the ground is stable and won't sink.

Every Star job includes coordinating the permits Ada County requires and hauling debris off-site — we leave the lot clean and ready for what's next.

Working in Star

Star, riverside acreage growing fast along the Boise River

Star is one of the valley's fastest-growing small towns, strung along the Boise River at the western edge of Ada County. It keeps a rural-residential character — acreage lots, horse properties, and farm ground — even as new subdivisions arrive, so old structures come down as new sites go in.

Star's acreage and horse properties mean barn, shed, and outbuilding teardowns, land clearing, and site prep for new homes on larger lots. Riverside ground brings drainage and grading into the plan, and we leave sites clean and build-ready.

Pool Removal in Star — FAQs

Do you offer pool removal throughout Star?

Yes — we cover all of Star and Ada County, from downtown Star and riverfront Star to rural Star acreage and the State Street corridor. Reach out for a free on-site quote.

Do you work outside Star, too?

We do — along with Star, we regularly handle pool removal in nearby Eagle, Middleton, Meridian and across the wider Treasure Valley. If you're near the Boise River, you're well inside our service area.

Do you haul off the debris after pool removal in Star?

Always. Every Star job includes sorting, loading, and hauling debris off-site, so your Ada County lot is left clean — no pile left for you to deal with.

What's the difference between partial and full removal?

Partial removal breaks up and removes the top of the shell, then fills the rest — faster and cheaper. Full removal takes out the entire shell so the ground can be built on later. We'll help you choose.

Can you remove a pool in a fenced backyard?

Yes. Tight access is common in the valley; we plan equipment routing and, if needed, work around or temporarily remove fencing.

Will the filled area sink over time?

Not when it's done right. We backfill with engineered material and compact in lifts so the area stays stable and level.
